Never underestimate the power of an elephant! 🐘 Watch this intense moment as an elephant suddenly attacks its handler, dragging him to the ground before he narrowly manages to escape. Incredible and terrifying raw power. 😱

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

Raptor 3 is engineering black magic
SpaceX’s Raptor is the FIRST full-flow staged combustion engine to ever fly - only the 3rd ever built (after the Soviet RD-270 and the 2000s US demo that never flew)
→ Both fuel-rich + oxidizer-rich preburners
→ 100% of propellant through the turbines before the main chamber
→ Auto-ignites from hot preburner gases (no Merlin igniter fluid)
→ Record 350 bar chamber pressure
Raptor 3 goes even crazier:
Everything internalized with regenerative cooling. No heat shields. No fire suppression system. Saves 10+ tons
This is how Starship becomes rapidly reusable
Elon Musk was asked why his companies move faster than anyone else.
His answer:
"I'm constantly addressing the limiting factor. Whatever the limiting factor is on speed, I'm going to tackle that. If capital is the limiting factor, I'll solve for capital. If it's not the limiting factor, I'll solve for something else."
He then said something most managers never figure out:
"If something is going really well and making good progress, there's no point in me spending time on it."
"The irony is if something's going really well, they don't see much of me. But if something is the limiting factor, they'll see a lot of me."
He spends his time entirely on whatever is blocking the next step.
Not on what's interesting. Not on what he's best at. But on whatever is the bottleneck right now.
Most leaders do the opposite... They gravitate toward what they're comfortable with and away from the hard problem.
